figure out the anti alias font thing in flash. I have been trying these "pixel" fonts but all is still blurry..
any ideas or dope slaps for me?

Dynamic text, use a bitmap face (which has only one whole point size, like 8 or 10, and is divisible only by 2), has to be on a whole pivel (x: 100, y: 100, NOT 100.3). this means, if the type is in a mc, and is at the 0,0 point, and the mc is at a non-whole number... won't work. Has to start on a whole coordinate, after that it can be moved dynamically to any point and still be legible...

find out what size the font was designed for.
then in your Info panel, set its coordinates to a whole pixel.example: x=50 and y=73
instead of
x=50.3 and y=73.7not really as hard as i am making it sound either.
pixel fonts are really pretty easy to use. you just gotta know what size they are supposed to be.

since Flash can be funny (I even found a few Atomic Media fonts that go soft in Flash for some reason... whole paragraphs will be partially crisp and partially soft... weird)..
Best option, if possible, make the type in photoshop or the like, save it as a gif and use that.
thats only if that is possible
